Alumni
Even though we’ve only been training NJ’s dancers for 24 years, many of our graduates have gone on to have professional careers…
*On Broadway
*Radio City Rockettes
*Directors & Choreographers
*Knicks City Dancers
*TV and Theater
*National Tours
*Movies
Proper training is crucial to success as a performer, and the success of a studio’s alumni are all you really need to look at to see if dancers are being properly trained. But we also have alumni who have gone on to be doctors, and authors, and attended Harvard, Princeton, The University of Pennsylvania, and dozens of the finest universities in the country, and we are equally as proud of them! We’re in the business of helping build people...and not just dancers!
